What's weirder than when a bunch of worms show up on the sidewalk when it rains? How about when an electroshocking giant worm that spits acid on you when it rains comes up out of the desert sand to greet you when it rains?! Well that's exactly what might happen if you're strolling through the Gobi Desert on a day of fresh rain, if you happen to cross the path of the Mongolian Death Worm! We travel far east to the land of Mongolia for this cryptid. Join Aaron as he brings you all the amazing facts and history of this sand dwelling killer worm.
